A chunky piece of brass that fits like a glove

Il Grande Silencio 07.09.2020

I got this to start learning slide and compliment my glass slide. Also because it will instantly enable you to play like Joey Landreth (please contact TRS or your chosen god with any complaints).
Pros:
The inner is bevelled so that it fits on the pinkie perfectly.
It has a cutaway at the bottom to enable the free movement of the knuckle
It has a groove cut into the side of the metal to enable the ring finger to sit snug and hold in place
It's a great size.
Cons
Not really a con, more a preference - it's heavy! If you're looking for a light slide, get a glass or maybe ceramic one. this is a nice chunky piece of brass.

I've just started with this, but so far it fits beautifully and is inspiring me. It is for the PINKY finger. This is important. If you play slide on another finger this may not work for you. Also while it fits perfectly on my pinky, if your hands are very large or small that may not be the case for you.

Excellent slide for pinky finger players

Stringslider 19.06.2022

After a lot of research I bought this slide to use on my resonator guitar. This guitar has a 12th fret neck joint so prefer to use my little finger for slide. it fits really well and is a nice weight on the 13-56 gauge strings that I use. I also like Joey Landreths music so that turned me onto this slide. I'm convinced that it helps me to play better as there is no slop in the fit. The weighted end helps to get a nice vibrato too which is always good.

Not for small hands

FrankPrank 09.05.2024

I've got small hands and tried the Joey Landreth version first, which was too long for me - about 7 - 10 mm too long. What you might not see at first glance is that the walls are tapered. Thinner at the bottom and thicker at the top. Which is awesome for a snug fit, but it also makes the pinky heavier :)

weird fit

Boyan Hristov 30.07.2023

I find it short and tight on my pinky. The cutout is a nice idea to help ergonomics. The notch that's supposed to be for your ring finger does not align with the cutout for your knuckle. When you align the cutout for the knuckle the notch for the ring finger is pointing at 10:30 o'clock, instead of 9 o'clock, I hope that makes sense. It is also a bit tight as well - at the top 15 mm of the slide the wall becomes too thick to stick your finger further into, so the fit feels tight on the finger and almost too far out, making it feel as if it will come off. This all makes for a bit of getting used to, if not uncomfortable.
